I hate unabashedly cis normative it is. Like love songs are ok once in a while, but don’t keep shoving your straight privilege in my face. EVERY song on it is from Rivers POV about his infatuation with the opposite sex. What’s more is that his infatuation comes from a place of racial superiority too. He routinely fetishizes asians which perpetuates a dangerous white savior trope where foreign subservient women are objects of possession rather than people. Even worse is that he degrades lesbians in Pink Triangle from a place of privilege. His obsession of starting a family with a lesbian only reflects the reality that gays are unfairly disadvantaged in our society for being unable to bear children. And don’t even let me get started on the mason jar metaphor in butterfly.
I’m glad Rivers is embarrassed by this album. He should be.
